Fujiya & Miyagi inspire living room dancing, tour with dapper Swedes

· by

For both exercise and nightlife dry-run purposes, there are few activities that can beat cutting a rug on your actual rug. The new media landscape has allowed brave performers to broadcast this once solitary ritual around the globe. The lively lad behind glitterparade.com is a pioneer of this fledgling art and from the looks of it, he's getting pretty good. The latest soundtrack to spectacle is "Photocopier" from Fujiya & Miyagi's acclaimed Transparent Things album.

Funny I should mention Fujiya & Miyagi, because the polite British krautrock revivalists are heading out on the road for a brief Spring tour in support of Swedish pop sensations, Peter, Bjorn, & John. Limited space in the crowd will likely keep your dance moves from being quite this fly. But what's the point of all that practice if you never get in the game?

Apr 30 Washington, DC @ 9:30 Club

whoa. his entire blog consists of him dancing to different songs solo?

Dave Park

As far as I can tell, yes. He does take requests though, which you have to respect.

I think his "Young Folks" dance is better although his dog doesn't look too happy.

Dave Park

full-length mirrors on his closet doors? dude's room was made for dancing.

bobby d.

Dave Park
